Post-Franco Theatre, Sharon G. Feldman Jan 2004

Post-Franco Theatre, Sharon G. Feldman

Latin American, Latino and Iberian Studies Faculty Publications

In the multiple realms and layers that comprise the contemporary Spanish theatrical landscape, “crisis” would seem to be the word that most often lingers in the air, as though it were a common mantra, ready to roll off the tongue of so many theatre professionals with such enormous ease, and even enthusiasm, that one is prompted to wonder whether it might indeed be a miracle that the contemporary technological revolution – coupled with perpetual quandaries concerning public and private funding for the arts – had not by now brought an end to the evolution of the oldest of live arts, …


De Ausencias, Recuerdos Y Redescubrimiento: El Teatro De Agustín Gómez-Arcos, Sharon G. Feldman Jun 2002

De Ausencias, Recuerdos Y Redescubrimiento: El Teatro De Agustín Gómez-Arcos, Sharon G. Feldman

Latin American, Latino and Iberian Studies Faculty Publications

“El caso de este escritor español es en gran medida irreparable". Esta sombría afirmación, escrita por el eminente crítico de teatro español Moisés Peréz Coterillo, figuraba en su introducción a la edición de 1991 de la farsa en un acto Interview de Mrs. Muerta Smith por sus fantasmas de Agustín Gómez-Arcos. En efecto, el caso de Gómez-Arcos (Almería, 1933 - París, 1998) representa una paradoja extraordinaria para los observadores del flujo y reflujo de la historia literaria europea. En Francia, donde vivió un exilio voluntario desde 1968, llegó a ser una figura prominente como escritor prolífico y premiado. Fue autor …

Los Gatos: Gómez-Arcos's Spectacle Of Sacrifice, Sharon G. Feldman Apr 1995

Los Gatos: Gómez-Arcos's Spectacle Of Sacrifice, Sharon G. Feldman

Latin American, Latino and Iberian Studies Faculty Publications

Agustfn Gómez-Arcos's Los gatos is a powerful, chilling piece of theater, a sacrificial spectacle steeped in passion, violence, and death, which straddles the balustrade between the emotional intensity of a Lorcan tragedy and the grotesque hyperbolism and dark humor of Valle-lnclán's esperpentos. In 1965, a censored production of Los gatos, directed by Juan de Prat-Gay, premiered to a somewhat lukewarm reception at Madrid's Teatro Marquina. Then, in November 1992, nearly thirty years after its original première, director Carme Portaceli resuscitated and restaged this post-Civil-War allegory for a new generation of theatergoers. …


Sanctifying The Scatological And Debasing The Divine: Postmordernist Allegory And Gómez-Arcos's Interview De Mrs. Muerta Smith Por Sus Fantasmas, Sharon G. Feldman Apr 1995

Sanctifying The Scatological And Debasing The Divine: Postmordernist Allegory And Gómez-Arcos's Interview De Mrs. Muerta Smith Por Sus Fantasmas, Sharon G. Feldman

Latin American, Latino and Iberian Studies Faculty Publications

In February 1991, when Agustin Gómez-Arcos's Interview de Mrs. Muerta Smith por sus fantasmas premiered at Madrid's Sala Olimpia, the voice of one of Europe's most distinguished living writers triumphantly returned to the Spanish stage after an absence that had endured nearly twenty-six years. Born in Almería at the outset of the Spanish Civil War, Gómez-Arcos began his career in Madrid as an award-winning playwright. Eventually his ongoing struggle against Francoist censorship prompted his voluntary exile from Spain in 1966, and following a two-year sojourn in London, he arrived in Paris amid the clamor of 1968. Since that time he …


Agustín Gómez-Arcos's Diálogos De La Herejía And The Deconstruction Of History, Sharon G. Feldman Nov 1994

Agustín Gómez-Arcos's Diálogos De La Herejía And The Deconstruction Of History, Sharon G. Feldman

Latin American, Latino and Iberian Studies Faculty Publications

In 1962, Agustín Gómez-Arcos, a young dramatist, still new to the Madrid theater scene, won his first Premio Nacional Lope de Vega for the historical drama Diálogos de la herejía. Yet almost immediately, the prize was swept from his hands in a wave of controversy, annulled in a blatant gesture of censorship that signified the Franco Regime's official response to his unorthodox choice of thematic material, and consequently banned the play from the stages of Spain's state-supported teatros nacionales. Set amid the sacrificial flames of the Spanish Inquisition, Diálogos de la herejía portrays the turmoil and hysteria that rock a …


Ello Dispara De Fermín Cabal: Hacia Una Configuración Posmoderna Del Espacio Textual/Teatral, Sharon G. Feldman Jan 1994

Ello Dispara De Fermín Cabal: Hacia Una Configuración Posmoderna Del Espacio Textual/Teatral, Sharon G. Feldman

Latin American, Latino and Iberian Studies Faculty Publications

Ya que estamos llegando al final (o, al desenlace) del siglo XX, casi se ha convertido en tópico la idea de señalar - semiologicamente hablando - la relación dinamica que existe en el teatro entre el texto y la representación de ese texto. Si vuelvo una vez más a esta dicotomía histórica, no es para establecer- como han hecho algunos semiólogos - un modelo comunicativo que plantee la posibilidad de una relación dialéctica entre los dos términos, sino para observar basta qué punto el teatro posmodernista plantea una ausencia y una imposibilidad de tal relación. Anne Ubersfeld propone la …

Perlimplín: Lorca's Drama About Theatre, Sharon G. Feldman Oct 1991

Perlimplín: Lorca's Drama About Theatre, Sharon G. Feldman

Latin American, Latino and Iberian Studies Faculty Publications

The contemplation of a theatrical work as a type of semiotizing machine which generates a network of signification systems, implies, a priori, the task of specifying the boundaries which define the object of analysis. Hence the dichotomy of text and performance has long been recognized as uniquely inherent in the theatre genre and, therefore, a logical preoccupation of the theatre semiotician. As indicated by contemporary theoretical work (such as that of Patrice Pavis and Anne Ubersfeld), it would appear that the role of the spectator in the reception of a performance is finally coming into view as an essential aspect …

The Nativity Plays Of New Mexico, Edwin C. Munro May 1940

The Nativity Plays Of New Mexico, Edwin C. Munro

Spanish and Portuguese ETDs

The Southwest is a region and a concept. New Mexico is an integral part of it...The Spanish folk heritage of the Southwest is a cultural resource that is highly important in the regional complex...My attempt here, then, has been to clarify and make available to more people one feature of this cultural heritage--the nativity plays.
